Christiaan Addicks




Watercolour: Work on paper. Dimensions: 25 / 33 cm.
Christiaan Addicks was a dutch painter and his watercolours
can be compared to those of Piet Schipperus.
Note the small gracefully placed woman in the middle.


And of course his signature.

Jorge Aaron Aguilar



You could call this a poetic painting with lotst of elements
in it to discover. Jorge Aaron Aguilar, born in 1936 in
Barcelona. After attaining a university degree, he left
Spain for Europe, mixing with the Bohemian circles of
the Schwabinger Kunstkreis in Munich but also attended
Montmartre (Paris) and St. Germain du Pres.
His first exhibition was launched at the Medici Society
in London and his reputation as an artist quickly grew
into one of international recognition and repute. His 
distinctive style of painting reflects a personal record
of his travels and to date he has had six highly succes-
ful world tours and over 179 individual exhibitions.


Even these details are complete paintings in itself.




Depicted here is the village St. Paul de Vence in the south
of France. The tower is immediately recognizable.


The background gives this detail so much depth.


As we allready have so much paintings (I know, it is
an addiction!) we decided to sell this one. Someone
from China made the highest offer but the transport
costs appeared to be too high. In the end we were
lucky it happened that way. It is a keeper!


The signature shows us "Aquilay A" so at the beginning
it is a bit of search on the internet but by using Artprice
you can compare several results with each other in
name and some google efforts will do the rest.

This watercolour we obtained in Rome just walking
on the street. I hate these touristic stuff most of the
time but for some reason I allways keep looking
at what these people are doing. This one
immediately drew my attention.
Work on paper. Dimensions 25 / 35 cm.
